_ Two men have halted at the foot of a pathway of steps, 
that leads up through the shadow of the fir-wood to a 
lighted space, where some ruins appear. One of them, a 
fat person, has taken off the green velvet coat that matches 
his breeches, and is sitting upon it, while, holding his wig 
in his right hand, he fans himself with his three-cornered 
hat, on to the rim of which butterflies are pinned. His com- 
panion, of slight build, stands before him, lighting a big 
German pipe. A specimen case slung from his shoulder 
hangs at the back of his brown velvet coat.

A HILL. PASTURE 


Tux hillside slopes down from the left, with a view be- 


yond on the right of a blue valley. About half-way down 


its descent a rocky formation crops up upon the brink, 
and on the grass near it lies a shepherd, around whom his 
charges are dotted. One sheep is alone toward the right of 
the foreground; two others lie nearer the centre. On the 
left a red cow with white legs and throat and face stands 
facing toward the right with her head held high, and be- 
hind her a red one is lying down, with her white face 
stretched along the grass.

SAYING GRACE 


Av a round table, supported on three legs, a man and a 


woman are seated, with their heads slightly inclined in 


prayer. He is seated on the left, holding a black cap on 
his knees, his figure, seen in profile, being clad in a blue 
shirt and yellowish-brown trousers. The old lady, in black 
cap and gown, with a little white lawn showing at her neck 
and down the body of her dress, faces us on the farther 
side of the table. A plate lies before each, and in the centre 
of the table is a white bowl filled with steaming potatoes. 
On the floor to the right of the fireplace, which forms the 
background, is a pair of sabots.

A SHEEP PASTURE 


Tux sheep are grouped tothe right of three birch trunks, 
which occupy the centre of the grassy spot. Between them 
appears the figure of the shepherdess leaning upon her 
staff. She is dressed in slate-colored clothes, with blue 
apron fastened up on one side. Behind her a slat-fence 
extends across the picture, willow trees growing beside it, 
and a view appearing beyond it of a sandy hill. The pale

BESIDE THE BABY CARRIAGE 


In the centre of the foreground of scrubby grass and 
sand a girl sits knitting beside the front wheel of a baby 
carriage. The group is seen in profile; the girl facing to 
the right, clad in a white cap, lavender body and a black 
and white striped skirt, with a black apron. The baby, in 
a white cap and lavender shawl, leans forward to play with 
some flowers in a basket, which is visible between the rails 
of the carriage. Over the sea beyond a few gulls are flying.

PREPARING BREAKITAST 


Sort light illumines the trees and brick church out of 
doors, but penetrates feebly the window, under which a 
man and a woman are seated on opposite sides of an 
octagonal table. The former, on the left, in a white cap, 
red kerchief and dull blue apron, is working a coffee- 
grinder which she steadies on her lap. Her figure fronts 
us, while the man is seen in profile, holding a pipe in his 
mouth and resting the other hand on his knee. A brass 
kettle stands on the table, and from the ceiling above it 
hangs a modern oil lamp.

SUNRISE ON THE NORTH SEA 


In the foreground are two drab spits of sand; an old 
anchor on one, a buoy float on the other. Beyond these 
stretches the gray-greenish water, lined with white, and 
lying some distance out are two fishing vessels. Their hulls 
are almost black, and the nearer one has a single brownish 
drab sail, hanging loose, the farther all its canvas. spread, 
including a square topsail. ‘wo distant sails appear on the 
horizon. Here a streak of crimson separates the water and 
sky, the latter filled with gray clouds, that are split in the 
centre, where the light is strongest.

the cold, slaty-gray sky. Its struggling light sharpens the. 
patches of snow, which are scattered over the foreground. 
Tnside the open door is a warm light, shining upon a 
woman’s figure and various comestibles displayed upon a

costume, gesticulating. Upon the benches that flank the 
doorway sit some officers, and other persons are lying on
